A&E Connock has unveiled its latest extended portfolio of natural exfoliants to the personal care trade in a series of new initiatives designed to assist manufacturers making the transition from microbeads to natural ingredients in their exfoliant products.
A vibrant brochure showcasing the wide variety of characteristics and colours of ingredients available in the range has been sent to over 5,000 buyers and R&D personnel across the world and a new natural exfoliants ‘micro website’, where formulators may order free samples online, is now live at www.connock.co.uk “With many manufacturers committing to phase out the use of microbeads over the next few years, we are ideally placed to help formulators identify and integrate suitable natural alternatives,” commented Tim Connock, A&E Connock’s MD. Their natural exfoliants offer a wide range of functions and possibilities to the formulator, from the light abrasive effect of ground loofah to the more aggressive scrub qualities of pumice. Also featured are beads derived from jojoba and castor which, while white in colour, provide a natural and environmentally positive option.
